			<h1>Bringing the cat</h1>
			<p>Day 00180: Thursday, 2015 September 03</p>
		</header>
<p>
	Between the fact that the router kept failing and the sheer number of emails she has on the <abbr title="Internet service provider">ISP</abbr> server, we didn&apos;t have time to finish backing up my mother&apos;s email.
	We&apos;ll have to try again next time we have Internet access.
</p>
<p>
	It took some effort, but we managed to load up the washer and dryer loaded up onto the trailer to take with us.
	It&apos;s been kind of lame not being able to do laundry.
	Once we got them home though, we found that the dryer has a plug type that doesn&apos;t match the electrical outlet at the home we&apos;re renting.
	We might be able to swap out the dryer cord later, but until then, we still can&apos;t wash our clothing.
</p>
<p>
	The other main thing we took with us back home was our cat.
	My mother had left the cat before for a couple reasons.
	First, until the move is complete, there are going to be long periods of time when everyone is out.
	My mother thought it would be kinder to the cat to leave her in a familiar place alone than leave her in an unfamiliar place alone.
	Second, the older of my two sisters didn&apos;t come with us, so my mother thought it would be nice to leave the cat as company for my sister for a while.
	My mother seems oblivious to the fact that the cat and my sister are mostly indifferent to one another.
	When we got to our former residence though, it was very clear that the cat was lonely, so she decided she should come with us on this trip.
	We spend more time at home than at our old residence, so the cat should be less lonely there, despite the fact that her whole environment has changed.
</p>
<p>
	On the trip home, the cat seemed nervous, but not panicky.
	She spent most of the trip sitting on my younger sister&apos;s lap, seemingly wanting comfort from a familiar person, but otherwise seemed very calm.
	Once home, we walked the cat through every room of the house to try to get her familiar with it, after which she went and hid under my bed.
	She didn&apos;t seem to mind my brother and I coming under with her, but she did not want to leave.
</p>
<p>
	I am cut off from the Internet tonight and cannot update my <a href="/a/canary.txt">warrant canary</a>.
